In 2014, Peter
Greenaway, the British artist, director and writer, will present a giant video
installation called "The Golden Age of Russian Art" in
Moscow's Manege. The installation, which will be devoted to Russian
avant-garde from the first three decades of the 20th century, will take up
6,000 square feet and will open the Russia–U.K. cross-cultural year.

The program of the
bilateral year will also include a tour of the National Theatre of Great
Britain, a Malevich exhibition organized by the Tate Gallery, and other
projects brought to Russia from the United Kingdom. Russia will be represented
in the U.K. by Dmitry Krymov’s laboratory, Boris Eifman’s Ballet Theatre, and
the Bolshoi and Mariinsky theatres.

The end of the
cross-cultural year will be marked in Great Britain by a large exhibition
called "Spacemen," dedicated to Russian pioneers in space
discoveries.
